I am looking for 2..4 hosts in the north of Portugal jan...feb. I would like to help with DIY projects, house maintenance or caretaking and meanwhile to know about the country and living conditions.
Description
Last summer I made a long bicycle tour through the Baltic States and Scandinavia.
This winter (jan...feb 2024) I would like to spent some time in Portugal and getting to know about the country and how it would be to live there (in wintertime). I want to travel with my partner Cilia. Probably by camper or by car. We do not want to be on the road, but would like to stay at a couple of interesting places and look around there and meet people who live in Portugal.
